Winter Village Running Loop Leutascher Meadow Path & Achweg

A light village running loop starting at Leutasch, following the wintery meadows and Achweg, and passing snowy fields alongside the idyllic, sparkling Leutascher Ache, with impressive views of the snow-covered Hohe Munde.

Description

This village running loop reveals one of the most beautiful aspects of the Leutasch Valley – snowy meadows, peaceful fields, and the wintry Leutascher Ache, all set against the breathtaking mountain backdrop, especially the Hohe Munde.

The gentle route begins at the Alpenbad Leutasch and is enjoyable year-round. First, it takes you over the Weidach Bridge to the football field. From there, the route continues along a wide winter trail heading westwards, passing through the Kirchplatzl district and the cozy Kühtaierhof and Birkeggguesthouses. Soon, you’ll reach the wintery meadow path along the forest edge that runs through the snow-dusted Plaikner Mähder – a real hidden gem. The trail then meanders through the small settlement of Leutasch-Klamm, where the Klammstraße provides a quiet section of the tour.

Next, the route initially heads south to the information plaza, crosses the main road and the Leutascher Ache to join the running path along the south bank. From here, the path follows the wintery flow of the Ache, passing through the districts of Platzl and Aue until reaching Kirchplatzl. Along the way, there are plenty of opportunities for a short break to enjoy the snowy landscape of Leutasch Valley – whether in one of the small rest areas along the Ache or at one of the family-run establishments in Leutasch. Finally, from Kirchplatzl you run back through Weidach and onward to the starting point at Alpenbad Leutasch.

The indicated running time is a guideline and depends on personal fitness.
